Canadian video platform Rumble to go public via $2.1B SPAC deal

  At the moment it's sitting at 3.1 billion, it's interesting because it's the closest we've come to a youtube competitor and it's always fun to see billion-dollar IPO's back by famous VC's (in this case Peter Thiel) https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/RUM?p=RUM&.tsrc=fin-srch https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/RUM?p=RUM&.tsrc=fin-srch

  This is good, Rumble is a free speech extremist. I expect to see people put their money where there mouth is, and make Rumble a success.

    I certainly wouldn't call them a free speech extremist, more like along the lines of 2015 youtube with stricter nudity guidelines (or maybe youtube today without censorship). I think it'll be interesting though, certainly it'll be good to have a competitor in the space and there's no reason there can't be multiple video platforms in the same way there are multiple Netflix's or search engines
